Well, Smash did incredible, and all the while...
Link keeps right on climbing.
Yikes! Guess that puts this in perspective. We're there any big ps4 releases last year around this time?PS4 sales are 10k lower this week compared to last year, which didn't have a price cut. Ouch.

A Nintendo game having a bump during the holiday shopping season is not weird. Even washed up, late 3DS games like Luigi's Mansion.

PS4 had a huge deal where you can get the PS4 for 5k yen off (about 50 dollar) and also get two free games included of your own choice. That's almost Spider-Man bundle tier
They had the MHW bundle without the game I believe so it's not that bad but yeah not the best result but still ok I'd say comparitively.Yikes! Guess that puts this in perspective. We're there any big ps4 releases last year around this time?
Ah, I see. That could explain last year's bump.If I remember right it had Monster Hunter World Pro bundle during this week last year.
Even with the nice boost, I don't think Star Allies will hit a million like we thought it could back in the Spring.12./18. [NSW] Kirby Star Allies <ACT> (Nintendo) {2018.03.16} (¥5.980) - 7.677 / 658.270 (+75%)

I wouldn't expect too much for the evergreens, this is Smash time. Next week though.
